ok, ive gotten the pr files, finally. But now im having a damn problem. The PR levels files install normally, I double click it and the setup window comes up and I can be led through the whole process of installing. But when I try to open the Core installation, it brings up command prompt for a second then quits command prompt, and Nothing happens. Nothing! Heres some screenshots of it-

And no matter how many times I click it, that comes up EVERY time. Another weird thing is that under properties, it doesn't display like a regular installation would. Heres a look-

It has all these tabs on the properties page, that the levels installation doesn't have.....can someone please help me? Thanks.

you do have BF2 and patch 1.41 installed on your computer first before installing PR?

hummm thats odd. My only guess is a corrupt download, try downloading it again, preferably via torrent to avoid corruption.

Dont you have to install core before you install levels? Or is it irrelevant?

Irrelevant, apparently. I tried to install core first, and it wouldn't work. Then I tried levels, and it installed fine. You can do either first, apparently....you just cant get the mod to start (or even appear) without the core installed.
Right now, I'm downloading the core OVER again.......7 hours to go..jesus....

And btw, read the manual before playing;) Its HIGHLY recomended

Nah, I dont need to read the manual. I've played PR before, I know how all the kit systems, death timers, vehicles, and all that jazz works.

Theres actually lost of new features in 0.7. I have played PR since 0.5, and thought that i didnt have to read it;) Logged in, joined a server, and didnt know wtf was going on tbh;) So reading the manual, or even better the wiki guide is really recomended mate:salute:
